1. The scale given is $$1 \text{ cm} = 2 \text{ m}$$.

2. Convert $$2 \text{ m}$$ to centimeters:
   $$
   2 \text{ m} = 2 \times 100 \text{ cm} = 200 \text{ cm}.
   $$

3. Thus, the scale can be written as:
   $$
   1 \text{ cm} : 200 \text{ cm}.
   $$

4. The scale factor, expressed as a fraction, is:
   $$
   \frac{1}{200}.
   $$
The scale factor is $$ \frac{1}{200} $$.
